Thinkfinity.org is the cornerstone of Verizon Foundation's literacy, education and technology initiatives. Their goal is to improve student achievement in traditional classroom settings and beyond by providing high-quality content and extensive professional development training. This free, comprehensive digital learning platform is built upon the merger of two acclaimed programs Verizon MarcoPolo and the Thinkfinity Literacy Network. Thinkfinity.org makes it easy for educators to enhance their classroom instruction with lesson plans, interactive activities and other online resources. Thinkfinity.org also provides a wealth of educational and literacy resources for students, parents and after-school programs.
All of Thinkfinity.org's standards-based K-12 lesson plans, student materials, interactive tools and reference materials are reviewed by the nation's leading education organizations to ensure that content is accurate, up-to-date, unbiased and appropriate for students.
Thinkfinity draws upon the strength of its content partners, who produce a wealth of discipline-specific, standards-based educational resources.
Indiana/Thinkfinity Partnership 
The Indiana Department of Education is the Indiana Thinkfinity Education Partner. Through a grant from the Verizon Foundation, the Indiana Department of Education has been able to align the Thinkfinity resources to the Indiana academic standards. These resources, along with many others, are presented on the Indiana Standards and Resources web site and in the Learning Connection.
